light on
I have a 06 superduty and found a squirrel nest above the passenger wheel in the engine compartment, the reason I looked under the hood is my ABS light was on. I then found the right sensor wire chewed in two. I soldered it back together but the ABS light is still on. Could a relay have been blown in the chewing process? I unhooked the battery's thinking it would reset but it did not even after driving. How do I get the light cleared?

I would look again in the engine compartment. I had the same thing happen to my 05 back in 06. Damage was MUCH worse... had to have the whole engine harness replaced...but I was lucky, my comp insurance paid for it. A week later the damn squirrels were at it again but I caught them before much damage was done and repaired that myself. Had to strip and solder 2-3 wires.
You may want to run a check on codes too. It may tell you why the light is still on.

Some code readers are designed to read the abs codes. That's really what you need. It will usually be prominently displayed if it has that function unless it's a high end professional device. I guess they figure if you spend the big bucks you already know what it can do.
